A new maintenance release of the E2E BRIDGE has been released. With this fifth edition of our E2E Developer Newsletter this year we inform you about the latest features and bug fixes of the E2E BRIDGE software components. As usual, you find all details in our release notes that are provided in our Online Documentation.

In this release we present major improvements for REST. It is now much easier to call a REST service with our new REST Adapter. You now even can import OpenAPI service descriptions of the REST service you want to call. Don’t hesitate to check it out in our online documentation (seeREST Adapter).

Please note concerning the new REST Adapter and existing REST Service and Bridge API that they still have preview status. This means that we do not yet guarantee backwards compatibility from this version on.
